It is small and cosy with a satisfying menu…read more I cannot say much for the service because we went there at the opening time and were the only costumers, so we were treated very well! The actual Greek dishes were the starters and couple of mains (the rest were grilled stuff). I can understand this, considering the location of the restaurant. The cooking was very good, but I cannot tell for sure that I felt like in Greece. I blame the raw material for this, which are very had to find in Denmark (especially during the winter). I liked the snails, the garlic sauce (skordalia) and saganaki the most. The baked lamp was also very good. I think is a great option to dine there, but reaching the location is a challenge if you have no car and live far.

The menu is from the same chefs as the Michelin star brother resto also but they do things as snacks, sweets and light eats. You can also get a picnic basket and bring it over to nearby Bellevue Beach and enjoy nature. We had reservations at Den Røde Cottage but were early from the train so we decided to sit on the outside patio and enjoy some drinks here before heading off to dinner. Our server Christian was super nice and recommended a rhubarb and citrus soda made locally in Denmark. He even called over to the other restaurant to let them know we were coming and then sent one of the cooks to make sure we didnt get lost in the trees. Now that's crazy good hospitality. Even without it I can imagine a full meal on the patio on a somewhat warm day overlooking the water during sunset as a great way to spend a lazy day in Klampenborg

One of the chef partners used to work for Jan Restorff, who knows everyone in fine dining around Copenhagen. Our server Johan grew up in the Faroe Islands like Jan Restorff did and got his job here because of Jan. One of the other chefs used to cook at Geranium and is the house mate of the head chef of Rasmus Koefoed who grew up in Orange County not far from where my father lives. We met Jan the day before and prior to that we met Patrick who used to work for jan at Formel B. Small world Copenhagen fine dining is eh? We were preceded by word from Christian from Den Gule Cottage, the other establishment down the road overlooking the beach. Because the path to this restaurant is literally through parts of the forest, one of the cooks from Den Gule walked us over. How much hospitality is that? When we arrived we were immediately greeted by Johan and secondly by Lars, the other partner. We sat outside, had some bubbly and a few small bites, enjoying the vast tip of the forest before heading inside for the main meal. This little red hut is from architecture of years past and the owners after looking for space in Copenhagen proper fell in love with the two buildings not too far from each other in Klampenborg. Altered to contain modern functional kitchens, they put a lot of heart into making high quality food in both establishments. As surprised as anyone they achieved a Michelin star here just the end of last year and the food shows. After looking at the menu we couldn't not get everything to make a full tasting menu. It was our last meal after all... Food: Salted mackerel, smoked cheese, cucumber and radish. Lobster, peas, mint and almonds. Danish summer tomatoes. Rabbit, fennel and green strawberries. Chicken, gooseberries, potatoes and beans. Cheese, jerusalem artichoke and horseradish Strawberries, verbena and buttermilk. Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. Wine: 2010 Tomàs Cusinè, Auzells, El Vilesell 2011 Frantz Saumon, Minéral, Husseau, Loire. 2009 Arnaud Ente, Burgundy aligote, Burgundy. 2009 Domaine Pallus, Pensées des Pallus, Chinon, Loire. 2011 Arianna Occhipinti, SP68, Vittoria, Sicily. 2009 Domaine Agapé, riesling, Riquewihr. Cascina Riveri, Birbet, Monteu, Roero. 2010 Rustenberg, Straw wine, coastal region. Phenomenal. Past histories at Geranium and Søllerød Kro cooking definitely shows. Not quite the ultra modern of the former or too French driven like the latter, but utterly delicious in their own style, just like the funky building. If you go here you should explore the space. Hit the upstairs restroom and see the cool slightly psychedelic paintings and obviously the views of nature all around. They have an interesting hallway that they built leading to a side building where the service station and kitchen reside. The service from Lars and Johan is extremely warm and comfortable, Throughout the night we chatted with them extensively about Danish cuisines new movement, what they love, the classics and things like why they love Danish lunch but not so much traditional dinner. We ended up there well past midnight even though we showed up at 7.30. We ran through the dark forest with cell phone light because we had to catch the last two trains at the station which never came (that's a whole other story). Even Johan got caught in that scenario. A must try if you are in Copenhagen and have time to wander a bit farther north to see and eat. It truly is a fantastic place.

The walk is safe, but because it was so dark it felt a little murdery. We were immediately greeted by our waiter and he took our coats once we reached the restaurant. The dining room is tiny and only has 5 tables. The night we were there only one other table came. It was very intimate. The ambiance is beautiful and the service was superb. We opted for the 7 course tasting menu. I can't remember every dish, but everything was so well balanced and incredibly delicious. The waiter always made sure to explain all of the ingredients to us and the process of each dish. The standouts for us were the tartar of ribeye and summer strawberry dessert. After having a bad experience with tartar a few days earlier we were a little wary, but it was amazing! Definitely one of, if not the best thing we ate during our trip. Overall, this is an amazing restaurant and it is clear why it has a Michelin star. I have been to a few one star restaurants, and DRC beats them all. Definitely come here if you have the chance!

They usually have a special of the day four course menu besides their current itemized menu. Having tried both options, I actually liked picking individual items from the menu rather than the pre-set four course menu. The pre-set one was very Danish, appetizer with Danish fish eggs (yeah, Danish caviar!), smoked salmon with cucumbers, Bornholm chicken and a mazarin cake. They all tasted very good but again it is pretty Danish. On the individual items from the menu, the foie gras appetizer is the best and the lamb dish is also very good. This place makes their own green sauce called "klorofyl" (!) and it is delicious, they serve it with few dishes together. Overall, setting is unmatched with Oresund views, atmosphere is cisp and chic, and the servers do a really good job. We were suprised to be asked how our food was during the meal (you don't always get this in Denmark). Approximate $: 500DKK/person (appetizer, main course, a bottle of wine shared)
